Don't get excited, it's just one mans rant probably written because he was paid for it, I skimmed all the way down to Harleys electric bike but I couldn't read it all..it was too boring.

Biking for most of us really started after the second world war, because the goverments had their usual cutbacks and sold off hundreds of thousands of motorcycles to wholesalers who filtered them down to the public..we all bought big ex army bikes because we could afford them and most of us still like the old twins..we had BSA's and Norton's, the Ruskies had Urals, the Nazi's had BMW's and you had Indian's and Harley's..all twins.

We have a joke question over here..

What is a biker?

John.

I just read this. So irritating on so many levels. And as for the subject, if you read it you'll get to the part about how apparently only people on adventure bikes and sport tourers "get" motorcycling. If you weren't already irritated, read some of the stuff he writes in the comments.

Obviously I don't agree with him on a lot of points. Just thought I'd share.
